Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A user-device authentication system comprising: memory configured to store computer-executable instructions, and at least one computer processor configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to: receive, at a third device, a request for access to information from a first device, the first device being a first Internet of Things (IoT) device; request a phone number from the first device; receive the phone number from the first device; determine a user profile associated with the phone number; determine a second device associated with the user profile, the second device being a second Internet of Things (IoT) device; send a first message to the second device associated with the user profile, the first message requesting user authentication on the second device using biometric information configured to be obtained on the second device; receive a second message from the second device, the second message validating authentication based on the biometric information obtained on the second device; send a third message to the first device granting access to information to the first device based on the second message validating authentication; and share, by the third device, the information with the first device.

2

2. The user-device authentication system of claim 1 , wherein a user identification is associated with the user profile and corresponds to the first device and the second device.

3

3. The user-device authentication system of claim 1 , wherein the biometric information obtained on the second device is a fingerprint or an iris scan.

4

4. The user-device authentication system of claim 1 , wherein receiving a request for access from a first device comprises receiving a user identification and password from the first device, and further comprising determining that the user identification and password match a known user identification and known password corresponding to the known user identification.

5

5. The user-device authentication system of claim 1 , wherein the second device maintains, on the second device, second biometric information for validating the biometric information obtained on the second device.

6

6. The user-device authentication system of claim 1 , wherein the request for access to information from the first device comprises one or more of a request for access to health information, fitness information, or entertainment information.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the phone number corresponds to the second device.

8

8. A method for granting access to information by a first device, the method comprising: receiving, by the first device, a request for access to information from a second device, the second device being a first Internet of Things (IoT) device; sending, by the first device, a request for a phone number to the second device; receiving, by the first device, the phone number; determining, by the first device, a user profile associated with the phone number; determining, by the first device, a third device corresponding to the user profile, the third device being a second Internet of Things (IoT) device; sending, by the first device, a request for biometric authentication using biometric information obtained on the third device to the third device; receiving, by the third device, the request for biometric authentication; obtaining, by the third device, first biometric information; determining, by the third device, that first biometric information obtained on the third device matches second biometric information saved on the third device; receiving, by the first device, a message indicating that the biometric information has been authenticated by the third device; sending, by the first device, instructions granting the request for access to information to the second device; and sharing, by the first device, the information with the second device.

9

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the biometric information comprises at least one of a fingerprint or an iris scan.

10

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the phone number and user profile are associated with the second device.

11

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the request for access from the second device comprises one or more of a request for access to health information, fitness information, or entertainment information.

12

12. A method for granting a first device access to information, the method comprising: receiving, by a third device, a request for access to information from the first device, the first device being a first Internet of Things (IoT) device; requesting, by the third device, phone number from the first device; receiving, by the third device, the phone number from the first device; determining, by the third device, a user profile associated with the phone number; determining, by the third device, a second device associated with the user profile, the second device being a second Internet of Things (IoT) device; sending, by the third device, a first message to the second device associated with the user profile, the first message requesting user authentication on the second device using biometric information obtained on the second device; receiving, by the second device, the first message requesting user authentication on the second device using biometric information; obtaining, by the second device, first biometric information; determining, by the second device, that first biometric information obtained on the second device matches second biometric information saved on the second device; receiving, by the third device, a second message from the second device, the second message validating authentication based on the biometric information obtained on the second device; and sending, by the third device, a third message to the first device granting access to information to the first device based on the second message validating authentication.

13

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the biometric information obtained on the second device is a fingerprint or an iris scan.

14

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the request for access to information from the first device comprises one or more of a request for access to health information, fitness information, or entertainment information.
